It’s a new-look lineup for our u21 Colts this season. The coaching team of Glenn Newman, Dale Marsters and Jacob Corbett brings a huge amount of experience and Cote passion to the team, supported by managers John Gorst and Mina Wharepouri.
The Colts played Silverdale on Saturday, losing by an unflattering scoreline of 41-7. The team started well and demonstrated they can be potent at times, but we struggled overall to find fluency on attack and dropped-off far too many tackles. But this is hardly surprising when one considers that 14 players were making their Colts debut straight from high school rugby, and the squad is a completely new amalgamation of lads from all over Auckland and overseas. Despite the loss, the spirits remained high in the sheds, and we know where we can improve. What cannot be faulted is the team’s effort. The lads also showed promise for the future if we can get our combinations right for Massey next week (at home) and beyond.
